The wheelchair is still a mobility aids commonly used by patients with muscle weakness or stroke patients. Some stroke patients, having constraints in moving a joystick or controlling an electric wheelchair due to muscle limitations of their hands Myo-armband, as wearable device that have an Electromyogram sensor can be used as an alternative in controlling the electric device like wheelchair more...
Electrophysiological recordings from human muscles can serve as control signals for robotic rehabilitation devices. Given that many diseases affecting the human sensorimotor system are associated with abnormal patterns of muscle activation, such biofeedback can optimize human–robot interaction and ultimately enhance motor recovery. To understand how mechanical constraints and forces imposed by a robot...
To functionally aid patients suffering from neurological disorder, a 3 degrees-of-freedom (DoF) upper limb wearable robot is presented (Fig. 1). In order to provide seamless user assistance, the intention of the wearer must be determined. As a sensing mechanism, electromyographic (EMG) signals have commonly been used to estimate human movement. In this study, the effectiveness of movement recognition...
In this work, a novel FES-robot system was developed for wrist rehabilitation training after stroke. The FES-robot system could be continuously controlled by electromyography (EMG) from the residual wrist muscles to facilitate wrist flexion and extension tracking tasks on a horizontal plane by providing assistance from both FES and robot parts. The system performance with five different assistive...
This paper suggest a prototype of a 3 degree of freedom myoelectric hand system for the upper limb amputee. It is consists of the 3 main part, the myoelectric sensor, the myoelectric hand, and training system: the first is a surface electrode myoelectric sensor to extract the raw electromyogram signal from the residual muscle of the upper limb amputee. To implement 6 essential function of the hand,...
